Lin Feng and Huo Meiling nodded and handed their cultivation techniques to her.
Lin Feng was a little curious, "Why do you say that, senior sister, and who is Elder Gao?"
He had just taken her as his foster master, but he didn’t know a thing about her. She definitely was strong, that’s all he knew, being able to discern his physique just by touching him was already a giveaway.
"She is the strongest cultivator in this whole sect, junior brother, I can say this, in the whole sect, if I don’t hate anyone, then it is Elder Gao Ling.
Because she didn’t involve herself in what goes on in the sect, she was the only one who never agreed to sect’s stupid decision to force me to accept a partner, in fact, she wouldn’t have let it happen if she was present in the sect, but she was in seclusion."
Xie Ruyue sighed.
Lin Feng nodded, then he thought of something, "Then why didn’t you accept her as a master? I doubt you have to go through the ceremony, right?"
Xie Ruyue shook her head, "You have to go through it, junior brother, although Elder Gao doesn’t care about other aspects, she still adheres to the sect’s core values. So, she herself never asked me about it, knowing fully that I will decline, in fact that’s why she never took disciples ever.
Actually, it wasn’t much of a problem now as Elder Gao didn’t have any partner now in the sect, she had only one partner in her life, and it was the previous sect master who had already begun walking the path of Dao and left this world.
Elder Gao never tried to take anyone else as a partner as they really loved each other, but it seems in this seclusion she had let go of that lingering emotion, that’s why I was surprised when she had asked you to accept her as master."
Lin Feng nodded in understanding.
Xie Ruyue suddenly looked at him, "Sigh... your looks really make others fall for you."
Lin Feng smirked, "What are you trying to say, senior sister? You mean to say that Elder Gao wanted me as a disciple because of my looks? You forgot she checked my physique before asking me to become her disciple."
"There is no need to deny it, junior, I have no doubt that she would definitely try to sleep with you even though you don’t need a ceremony to prove your resolve, and I doubt you’re going to say no to it... Humph!" Xie Ruyue pouted.
"I hope so... Cough!" Lin Feng wouldn’t mind, in fact, given elder Gao’s experience, he might learn some new things.
Xie Ruyue sighed in annoyance but didn’t comment back. After registering their cultivation techniques, she handed them back and stood up, "Let’s go back now."
"What about this place, senior sister, wouldn’t others take cultivation techniques easily?" Huo Meiling asked.
"Don’t worry about it, only inner disciples come here, and no one tries to steal anything, when you enter inside the pavilion, the main array of this pavilion records your sect token.
Because of this, it’s easy to figure out who has come when, if anything happens, then those disciples will be caught and interrogated. It will be easy to find the culprit, anyway, Elder Gao would definitely send someone, so let’s just leave."
Huo Meiling nodded, and they walked back to their peak.
"Today was really an amusing day, I don’t know if I should be happy or sad," Xie Ruyue really didn’t know, while observing Lin Hao, she had begun to feel something which she had been searching for all these years.
The only problem is that he is totally opposite of her in promiscuousness , than why does she even feel like this for him.
Lin Feng could easily discern that Xie Ruyue was a little disappointed in him, he could only shake his head internally... he wasn’t here to make relationships.
No doubt he liked her as a woman and as a person, but it wasn’t love, and no doubt she didn’t love him either, at least at this moment.
He was even thinking of saving her from this sect once he was about to leave. How she would react afterward would be her choice, if she still liked him after knowing that he wasn’t solely hers, then he wouldn’t mind taking her with him.
"Why would you say that, senior sister?" Huo Meiling didn’t understand why she would feel sad.
Xie Ruyue took a deep breath, "I was thinking about how I can change so much in one day, forget it, it’s not a big deal."
It truly wasn’t something that she couldn’t handle and would fret over long.
Huo Meiling nodded, although she still wasn’t able to understand it completely.
Once they came back to the square, Lin Feng suddenly remembered something, since he had earned more than 20,000 spirit stones, he should just pay for the herbs.
"I was thinking of going to pay for the herbs, you guys should just go, it won’t take long." There was no need for them to come.
"We will just wait here, come back quickly," Xie Ruyue spoke.
Lin Feng smiled, "I hope you don’t miss me, senior sister, while I am gone," he just wanted to lighten her up.
"Tch... as if," Xie Ruyue snorted.
Lin Feng shook his head with a broader smile and left.
Huo Meiling had always taken their playful remarks as just a joke, she had no doubt brother Lin wanted her as a partner, but senior sister Xie would always decline it playfully.
But if she thought about it, isn’t senior sister taking it too lightly, she definitely didn’t act like this with others, or else they wouldn’t be afraid of her, in fact, they would have approached her.
"Senior sister, can I ask you something?" Huo Meiling decided to just ask about it.
"Hm? Go ahead," Xie Ruyue was surprised a little, she seemed to have come out of her guilt somehow.
